Book Review of Lost in a Good Book (Thursday Next, Bk 2)

Lost in a Good Book (Thursday Next, Bk 2)
reviewed on + 7 more book reviews


Lost in a Good book did not live up to the expectations created by its predecessor. It felt like the author had 100 pages' worth of good ideas and needed to come up with 250 more pages to sell the book. Events did not happen logically or organically. They were created and plugged in to keep the story moving. As a result, the book feels disjointed and made up. There was also too much of the protagonist getting into impossible situations that only extraordinarily fortuitous events could save her from a la Doctor Who. All that being said, I really really really liked the ending.
